GREENVILLE, S.C. — A man working as a security guard has been charged with having sex with a minor.

The Greenville News reported 25-year-old Paul Matthew Cason is charged with criminal sexual conduct involving a 13-year-old girl he was taking from a Greenville Health System facility to a Charleston health facility.

Cason is charged with second-degree criminal sexual conduct with a minor between ages 11 and 14. He also was charged with third-degree criminal sexual conduct after investigators said he committed or tried to commit a lewd act on a victim under age 16.
